Sure, let me magically reach into your phone, get a logcat / last_kmsg & add it to the oxygen Issue tracker, so that we can help you...

Does it do it with the recommended HBOOT layouts (Oxygen / CM7), if not, then its due to the *unsupported* custom MTD you're using...
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
Oxygen is not CM. Use CM if you want features from CM....
[Desire Android Development] skatt127:
besides, I've just noticed on 2.1.2 GPS positioning is more quick.

It was 1-2 min. on 2.1.3 and only 20 sec. on 2.1.2 in the same place.

App permissio nmanager

Hello all,

would you know if this brilliant app permission manager feature just added into CyanogenMod7 could be installed on / integrated into Oxygen ? I've been waiting for this for AGES !

Many thanks in advance !

[Desire Android Development] MightySashiman:
I am pretty sure Oxygen and CM7 share quite a few features / optimizations (althought they may be implemented in a different way). Doesn't CM have vol+/- music switch for instance ? power widget in status bar ?...

Anyway, thanks for this condescending and useless non-reply of yours :)
[Desire Android Development] arnidis:
my friend i do not want to use CM i only want to change the colour i believe that oxygen is far better than CM.
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
The theme chooser was in a test build of oxygen (before it was in CM). Adam removed it, as the code wasn't clean enough, and it doesn’t fit in with the "almost-stock-AOSP-but-better" philosophy of Oxygen.
[Desire Android Development] kharekatoh:
I think battery is sligthly better on 2.1.3, however it would be nice to custom change auto brightness, for me its still too bright in some places. And you are right, sometimes its at full brightness when it should be low.
[Desire Android Development] mrweisslee:
is it possible to retrieve oxygensettings.apk from 2.1.1 and install to 2.1.3 ?

Any ideas how if can? Thanks

No, and why would you? Oxygen Settings is in 2.1.3 anyway. The whole things been reworked so liklihood of it working is pretty slim.

Disagree. 5 hours and 22 minutes on battery, and only 4% battery drain (only few connections to 3G networks).
[Desire Android Development] arnidis:
thanks a lot for your help i will try
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
battery draining is amazing, I can easily pass a whole day (24h) as advanced user without charging

who feels low battery performance I strongly suggest to check their installed app list, in my experience I found sometimes "battery enemy" app acting randomly

also don't use at all any kind of task-killers & remember that "magic" saving battery apps often give the opposite effect

enable auto volt management trick offered by Thalamus kernel, low freq when display is off, change skebby check from 2 minutes to 3 (it doesn't change anything), if use genie widget an auto-update every 6 hours is enough

the last tip is to give a look at "cell tower switch freq" trough: *#*#4636#*#* (there is a very detailed thread on xda)

I bet that 99,9% of plp with battery issues is due to their setup :cool:
[Desire Android Development] dk_zero-cool:
Is that with screen on or off. If I sit and read on xda using the xda app in a slightly dark room, my phone uses 176mA with 2.1.2 and 292mA with 2.1.3. I lost 40% power during the first hour with 2.1.3 with screen on. 13% after I changed back to 2.1.2.
[Desire Android Development] eduits:
i agree!!!!!

If people have bigg battery drain, you can try to boot in recovery and clear battery stats.

Battery drian is not caused by de rom!

[Desire Android Development] :
Of course they do. And I bet none of those *cough* individuals have done any troubleshooting or wiped before they start whining and posting garbage.

[Desire Android Development] hib1000:
Hi Thalamus, just updated my phone, no wipe or anything, couldn't be arsed, and restored all my apps and data via titanium and now its battery life is crap

I'm running the most recent untested Radio and any old RIL, but i'm pretty sure it's your kernel. Can you please sort it out? I will post my phone to you to fix.

Thanks

;)
[Desire Android Development] :
Oh noez. :( I'm terribly sorry about that, I'll get onto it at once.

Should I pay for a courier to pick it up? :p

Edit: In all seriousness though, as a dev, that is what it really feels like sometimes, which is why I come across as 'harsh' sometimes. If only people would take a little bit of initiative and try to solve their own issues without constant whining and reverting to older versions.

If you want support, and the right to complain, and the right to demand someone else do your troubleshooting for you, please use the proprietary stock HTC ROM, not an open source community built custom ROM.
[Desire Android Development] eduits:
Lol

ohhh men...... lol lol lol
[Desire Android Development] hib1000:
Amen. I've been on these forums for a while, and learned as i went, and the sheer amount of repetition is staggering. EVERY update someone says battery has gone crap, its tiresome for me, and must be mind numbing for you.

BUT, what we all really want to know is, what is this "Something that hasn't arrived yet" in your signature?
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Two weeks ago, I decided to give Oxygen another try. Loving it so far. To be honest, I always thought the devs could be a little 'arrogant' or easily agitated. However, now that I'm using Oxygen and following this thread more closely, I have to say I totally understand them. As a complete rom, it 'feels' even cleaner without all those hacks. It feels smooth and very clean. It may not be the fastest rom, but it simply is amazing.

As far as kernels go, this must be the most stable kernel I've used. Absolutely no problems with battery life or reboots. Again, maybe not the fastest kernel, but really, who would sacrifice stability for speed?! For those experiencing bad battery life, I always recommend to do a fresh install (but really, I believe this has been mentioned in every post), if the problem persist, install Current Widget and check which app is responsible. I'm no expert, nor am I a developer, but common sense makes me think that battery life with this rom (as with many others though) is not (or never) because of the rom or kernel, but simply due to a faulty setup or bad app. And last, with _thalamus' kernels, battery consumption in standby is approximately 3-8ma. If it is significantly higher, don't blame the kernel, find the app responsible!!!

I'm trying to update a PVT3 SLCD GSM Desire with the oxygen hboot to 2.1.3 from a 2.0 release with a full wipe but I am getting the same issues described for PVT4 users.

I've also tried to switch to the N1 boot table from the oxygen table by placing PB99IMG.zip on my SD card but I get an error saying the device ID doesn't match.

any suggestions?

It is not the radio! impossible!

I am using 32.56.00.32u_5.17.05.08 for 2 weeks now, and this is the best radio i ever used.

No music via Bluetooth only calls

Hello guys, currently running Oxygen v2.1.3 with the latest Radio 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23.

I'm having an issue with music via Bluetooth.

I have a Sony Ericsson mw 6000, it's paired up and working via bluetooth for incoming and outgoing calls, but it will not receive the music. It did on the stock Desire Rom, and Ginger Villain, and I'm pretty sure it worked on earlier Oxygen roms. I've checked the Bluetooth settings to make sure it's set to receive Media etc: Fixed permissions in Rom Manager to see if that helped. Disabled and re enabled the pairing partnership. Rewiped and reinstalled the Rom. Checked through the Forum and so far have not found any answers. Just hoping someone can shed some light on it, dont really want to change Roms as this is the best IMHO. At the end of the day I can manage without it, but it would be nice to get it working again. Cheers:)
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
you should stop to switch every 2 hours the radio img & ril libs

above all changing ril doesn't give any practical effect, plus some ril are specifically for sense rom... this one is aosp

stay with default oxygen ril & install back suggested radio if still have issues
[Desire Android Development] rawa ijo:
hello guys,

currently im using oxygen 2.1.2 , im just curious about one thing. is oxygen had issue with some application? coz when i wanted to install application (games), it always said it can not installed. but when i use in other rom (CM7) , the application can be installed. the roms i used had same android version ( 2.3.4)

so somebody could explained to me about my problem?

thanks

ps : sorry for my bad english :)
[Desire Android Development] tonyyeb:
Thanks, ill give that a try. Come to think of it, it might have been around the time I updated the radio.

Updated to 2.1.3 and all seems fine.

Sad to lose a built-in way to disable the button backlight.

But found a script in the forums to do it:

Don't know how battery-efficient (or battery-inefficient) the fixed auto-brightness will be according to my usage.

Maybe there should be a flashable mod section in the first post.

You still use sim contacts? Seriously - get them set up as google contacts.

[Desire Android Development] mortenmhp:
It does work, and it's not working randomly. It's connected to the screen back-light. In low light levels, the screen light dims down, and buttons turn on, while in bright light, screen back-light goes up in order to compensate, and the buttons turn off. And yes just tested, and it works very consistently here.

Would love for the screen back-light to be a bit lower though :)

[Desire Android Development] jazha:
I'm having a strange problem related to the radio and how the rom \ radio chooses network types.

If I have my *#*#4636#*#* menu option set to "WCDMA preferred" the phone chooses to use GSM network over WCDMA. GSM get full signal, but no 3G etc.

When I force the WCDMA network I get full signal and 3G.

Is it the rom that is choosing or is the radio somehow responsible for this behavior?

I cannot recall it happening earlier, however I might be wrong.
[Desire Android Development] funkymagicuk:
Is there any chance the auto-update option in Oxygen Settings can be made to be more like it used to be.

As it stands, when I click the button, I've no idea what's happening, whether whats being downloaded is new or just the same as I've already got installed etc...it used to be much better to see various available ROMs and choose to download and install from there.

Also there's no option to go to a previous ROM as there used to be (I've not needed to do this, but its nice to be able to go to a last known good configuration if something doesn't work as expected for whatever reason).

Other than that...spanky build, love it!
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
You mean thalamus didn't jump on a plane the second he saw the post? Far out, what a lazy git... I see why people say you don't get any support in here.

Back on topic, am back on oxygen rather than devnull... do a custom build etc but oxygen is an easier base to work on. All working well for me here.

Because in version 2.1.3 there are no settings: custom light-sensor lvls and screen on/off animation & sound.
[Desire Android Development] RandomPlayer:
Alright, maybe there is then something weird in my light sensor or something. I was about 5 minutes almost dark room and the backlight didn't adapted and physical buttons backlight didn't turn on. If I put auto brightness off then physical buttons are working. Is there any kind of patch to revert buttons and screen related backlight off?

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] SilverSurger:
1. Custom Light Sensors are gone, as mentioned in the change-log.

2. Screen on/off is under Systemsettings -> Display - You will find "Animation", check "All" in order to get the animation back (for screen-off that is, dunno about screen-on).

3. Sound - This is also gone and the default levels will be used.

There is no way of porting the old "settings"-application to the newer one.
[Desire Android Development] codemann:
Hey guys,

I've been following a few threads on XDA to read up on all the new words there are with flashing the ROMs nowadays. I hope you don't mind I hijack this thread to ask a question I'm currently having.

Is it true that when you flash a ROM, the recommended Radio and RIL is always included by the cook? So basicly you should stay with that unless you have some serious problems or something?

I've tried CM now, and because I was playing around the first time I tried a different radio as well. If I understand everything correct, that radio will be overwritten when I flash for example Oxygen?

Thanks for the information and keep up all the good work with cooking all those beautiful ROMs and giving support to total newbies like myself :D
[Desire Android Development] niels_kievits:
The Radio will not be overwritten if you flash a rom, the RIL is provided with the rom so that's subject to change every time you flash.
[Desire Android Development] Splin-ru:
No, custom ROM as usual does not include Radio, only RIL, so changing custom ROMs does nothing with current radio. If your current Radio differs from recommended to ROM, you want to flash, you will need to flash corresponding Radio yourself.
[Desire Android Development] codemann:
Thanks for the amazingly quick reply, were you waiting for me to post this? ;)

The reason I thaught that the radio was included, is that I don't see any "recommended radio: ..." in the OP of for example this topic.

I read the OP again now and the only link to a radio that I see is in the screenshot, where there is referred to "32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17".

Am I making the right conclusions? Is that the place to look for which radio to flash?

Hello,

At Oxygen Settings I found the Power Widget tab where I can configure the Widget buttons. The problem is, when I add the Power Control widget on the screen it always appears with the five default buttons, it doesn't take the buttons I configured in Settings.

Settings updater option

From the 2.1.3 changelog there is the following entry:

"Added updater to oxygen settings"

Can there in the first or second post in this thread be written what this functionality actually does?

I have run it twice, and after its finished it reboots my phone, seems to update some system files, but nothing has actually happened in the oxy settings.

So I assume nothing has actually happened on the phone.

Wow Finally 2.1.3 out... i'm gonna back to Oxygen :)

I miss thalamus kernel... best kernel i ever had...

[Desire Android Development] funkymagicuk:
I *think* the Updater just downloads and installs the latest ROM (whether you already have it or not).

Would prefer if this area reverted to the design it followed prior to being pulled, where you could select from 'available ROMs' and download them....or at least just a display that says, "if you press this then we'll download and install x.x.x which is x MB in size".
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
It happens to other downloads as well. You can try to clean the market cache (settings->apps->all apps->market, then 'clear cache'). Then try again...
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
1st simply try to clean market cache, 2nd try to uninstall by hand from app, but before this remember to erase (twice if needed) data settings (always from app settings)

[Desire Android Development] Das IceDice:
I had same error (or was it installation unsuccessful?). Anyway I wasn't able to update random programs. After uninstall and then reinstall all went ok... until next app update. I cleared cache etc. but no help. Now I buy new 16GB sdcard and I made total wipe, all ok. Afterwards I remembered that amonra recovery has "fix application ID's" or similar, I think that would fixed my problems. Maybe it helps you?
[Desire Android Development] kusic:
Just for Adam's twitter message about not buying HTC anymore because of locked bootloader...

Guess what, they (htc) have twitted, they would think about that again.
[Desire Android Development] koelspy:
Because we are all developers here you can just read the source. I've checked it and the updater does this:

* First download this: http://download.oxygen.im/roms/bravo/latest-oxygen.zip and save it to /sdcard/update.zip

* Start process (with su) and write this file to /cache/recovery/command:

boot-recovery

--update_package=SDCARD:update.zip

* Then it will reboot to recovery.

I think recovery or hboot will then execute the command file.
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
The updater only works with cwm 2.x at the moment, I will update it for 3.x, it is just meant to be a simple updater, the code is <1kb, it doesn't notify of new updates, it just downloads and updates on-demand.

[Desire Android Development] feueri:

Hi there,

I can confirm that auto brightness was working much better on 2.1.2 :( now it's too lower in normal conditions and seems not changing automatically when it bright to maximum. :( (when it want to change..)

I now have to change manually everytime the brightness via settings..

Moreover, why not let access settings for users who want to change the values like before ? was much better, really :(

Thinking to revert to 2.1.2 actually.

Yeah 2.1.2 was too bright.
[Desire Android Development] Splin-ru:
But it was customisable, so I set values from thread and it was good. But now brightness levels doesn't fit well (for me, at least) and it's quite laggy. I had to wait up to 5sec to get correct brightness at street.
[Desire Android Development] J_B204:
Just some feedback on the brightness settings.

Followed the discussion on what should be the best settings, in particular the post where Adam G stated what settings he would apply.

Immediately I applied those settings to 2.1.2 and was very happy. Just updated to 2.1.3 and it seems that they are quite a bit brighter than the ones agreed earlier.

The discussion was quite a way back in the thread so can't remember what the settings were, sorry!
